While his granddaughter had a rough day at Badminton, Prince Philip endured a minor embarrassment of his own. The Duke of Edinburgh had a bit of a tumble when he and Queen Elizabeth IIvisited a center for injured police officers.

Philip continued undeterred, chatting with a retired officer receiving acupuncture treatment. Thirty-two seconds into the video, the Duke, not a fan of acupuncture, gets a laugh when he says the procedure is "bloody agony."

Queen Rania of Jordanhas been getting chatty on Twitter. (Yes, it's legit.) Rania's bio states, "A mum and wife with a really cool day job ... " No kidding. Today she took the kids to meet the pope: "Just choppered to airport to receive Pope. Husband piloting, he got acrobatic to quiet butterflies in stomach :) told u he was action man!"
